Watch our Xperia Z5 unboxing on Periscope

Hey folks, we’re trying something new and we want your opinion!

We’re taking the time-honored genre of tech unboxing  and adapting it to our mobile-savvy audience. Android Authority has been on Periscope for a while, and now we’re (finally) putting the live-streaming app to good use. We’re starting with a live unboxing session of the Xperia Z5, and our Nirave Gondhia is your master of ceremonies.

If you need a primer, Twitter-owned Periscope lets you broadcast live video in real time to all your followers. It’s a powerful tool, and we think it’s a great match for some of our coverage. From Q&A sessions, to event impressions, and yes, unboxings, we plan to use Periscope to give you an unconventional look into all things Android.

Periscoping (which I hereby declare a real word) is fun, engaging, and interactive. But conventional unboxing videos have their strong points. Mainly, they can give you a better look at the devices. This is why we need your input.

Would you like to see more live unboxings and other live videos on Periscope? Or do you prefer the full-blown YouTube videos? Or both? Vote in our poll and comment below.
